Do you have the time?

Yes...hold on
Let me check the CLOCK
in the living room!


Architect Monica Donati
Built her unique apartment in an
old 19th century Clock tower .
It has a 360 degree view of Paris proper and
all of it's famed sights!



She can see the Eiffel tower as she reads in bed...


...View the sights of Paris as she drys her dishes...


MontMarte and the Sacré-Coeur sitting down to afternoon tea...

Would you ever leave?
Je ? … pourquoi, jamais !!

I've seen churches being turned into residential dwellings..., but an apartment in a clock tower, and in Paris! Wow.

I'm happily, blissfully married, however, if I were a single girl...this would be the perfect spot for me!!

Mary said...

Don't you know I love that ! I hope to build in my steeple eventually - a little sleeping alcove like hers. Thanks

Its fantastic!
If I live there, I would never left home...But, does the clock works? I wonder if it makes too much noise...just kidding! If it does, some cotton in the ears solves the problem!
